On December 29th, 2013, Formula 1 legend Michael Schumacher had an accent while skiing. It has been reported that he hit a rock causing the brain injury. He was wearing helmet, which doctors say is the only reason he is still alive. The doctors put him into a medically induced coma following a surgery to remove the blood clots in his brain. His manager told the reporters Wednesday that he is "stable." Now the doctors are trying to wake him up from the coma. Which is said "could take a long time."
I, as a formual 1 fan, am sad to see this news and hope that Schumacher gets better. He was a seven-time world champion and was absolutely brilliant behind the wheel. I feel terrible for his family and friends. I am extremely glad that he wore a helmet given that was the only thing stopping him from dying. So let that be a warning to everyone, please wear a helmet, even if you are a world champion.

That's horrible! I hope Shumacher wakes up soon, and that is family and friends are coping well. It's good that he was wearing a helmet, otherwise the damage could've been so much worse!
ReplyDeleteThis is very unfortunate, and I love the lesson you included at the end. Yes, no matter who you are or how good you are at anything that has potential of being dangerous, safety always comes first.
